OCSO Capt. Angelo Nieves said in a news conference near the scene that the three are believed to be renters of the home at 10675 Mere Parkway. This is a gated neighborhood near Narcoossee Road and Tyson Road in southeast Orange County.

The three bodies were found around 11 a.m. Saturday, when deputies responded to the home at the request of the property manager, who had no contact with the renters since mid-November. The home's owners live out of state.

Nieves would provide only limited information because it's very early in the crime scene investigation. He did reveal that there was no sign of forced entry to the home. The OCSO is considering murder-suicide along with other possible scenarios.

The bodies have not been identified and it appears they are badly decomposed because of a foul odor coming from the home.
